About me
Originally from Oakland, California, Vanelle attended the performing arts high school Pinole Valley High. Although that would be where Vanelle would first perform on stage as an actress and dancer, it was as a small child performing impromptu plays for her grandmother that Vanelle first realized she loved not only acting, but directing as well.
After graduating high school Vanelle continued performing in college Dance Productions and found her love for Afro-Haitian dance under the tutelage of Debra Vaughn, founder of Dimensions Dance Theater. At the same time Vanelle was working full time in a Berkeley grocery store where Mike White, a local photographer, "discovered" her and introduced her to modeling. Many of Vanelle's most favorite photographs were done by Mike White in those early days of her modeling career.
Vanelle eventually moved to Chicago and then on to North Carolina. She had never given much thought to being an actress in California as it seemed everyone out there wanted that exact thing. But moving out to North Carolina, Vanelle discovered a very active Independent Film industry. She tested the waters by acting as an extra for Warner Brother's "Juwanna Mann". It wasn't long before the acting bug bit Vanelle again and she found herself with two auditions on the same day, winning both roles.
Vanelle could only take this as a sign as to what she should be doing. Since those first auditions Vanelle has worked in projects such as "Cutting Room!", "Psycho Holocaust", "Guerrilla!", "Survival", "Shotgun Kiss", and the award winning "See the Dead". She has worked in television pilots "Traveling Man" and "Yuppies" and voiced cartoon characters in Mojeu's anime series "Caramel Crew". But acting would not be enough for Vanelle. Soon after appearing in a few films, she began working behind the camera as assistant director, casting director, producer, and writer.
This ability for Vanelle to wear multiple hats allowed her to produce her first very own short film entitled "Inheriting the Earth". It was released under her production company Magic Tribe Pictures and premiered at the Charlotte Film Festival.
